Community Perspectives of a Healthy Yampa River

Join MountainTrue's Americorps Water Quality Administrator, Mara Chamlee, to learn about her Master's Capstone work at Colorado State University focused on the Yampa River in Northwest Colorado. Mara partnered with the nonprofit organization, Friends of the Yampa, to assist in their efforts to support a healthy Yampa River for all. Her work focused on assessing community values of the Yampa River and evaluating perspectives towards what a healthy river for everyone means now and in an uncertain water future in the state of Colorado. Although the Western United States faces a different set of challenges when it comes to water conservation, there are many lessons to be learned on how communities define what a "healthy river" means to them. Those lessons can be applied to river systems across the country and here in Western North Carolina. Tune in to learn about the fascinating system that is the Yampa River and what community perspectives of a healthy river can mean for conservation!
